Liverpool midfielder Jordan Henderson says he's now feeling part of the furniture at Anfield.
Henderson is thriving under the Brendan Rodgers revolution, playing a number of roles from central midfield, to wide-right and even wingback.
He told the Mail on Sunday: "When I arrived, I struggled in terms of consistency and that was something I had to get to grips with quite quickly.
"You'll always be judged by the fee to begin with, it doesn't matter who you are. You look at Gareth Bale, one of the best players in the world, and because he is £86 million, he will be judged on that.
"People are saying he might not be worth it even though he is a top player and deserves to be at Real Madrid.
"At the end of the day you can't read too much into it. You just need to get on with your job and do what you know you can do best and keep working hard."
